We preach to our young players, "movement kills defenses." Ball movement and player movement challenge even assiduous defenders.
@NBA_Rundown shares illustrative clips.
"The ball is a camera." Relocate to allow the camera to see you.Terrific off-ball movement/spacing concepts by Kelly Oubre. Fades to the corner in tandem with the baseline drive as @DylanTMurphy just detailed in his article on @cleantheglass then 45 cuts for a dunk when MIN performs trap-the-box & sink-and-fill help pic.twitter.com/8eFXqHyWhP— NBA Rundown (@NBA_rundown) March 14, 2018
In the beginning of the clip, Oubre SINKS to the CORNER on the baseline drive. This affords him the shorter 3 point shot 'below the break'. Although he has increased his 3-point shooting to 36.5%, he misses. Washington gets the rebound, and he spaces to the perimeter. On the following ball reversal and second baseline drive, he stays active, drifting into the lane for a slam.
